What resin patios involve
A resin patio is a resin bound surface laid in a garden for seating and dining areas. Because it is trowelled in one piece, it has no joints for weeds or ants, it can follow curves easily, and it can be laid over sound concrete or old slabs that are solidly bedded.
In Exeter, as anywhere, the base is the part that decides how long a resin surface lasts. The survey settles whether we overlay, repair or rebuild it. Exeter has a broad mix of housing, from terraces near the centre to detached homes on the edges.
In Exeter we can price work such as laying a cool, pale surround for a garden pool, building a gentle ramp to a back door and finishing garden steps with resin treads and stone nosings. More about resin patios.
Prices for resin patios in Exeter
Labour and material costs in the South West run above the UK average, and the guide figures below reflect that. They include VAT and are confirmed after a survey.
Typical Exeter figures for a 29 m² patio: £1,400–£2,150 over sound tarmac or concrete; £2,350–£3,700 with a dig-out and new permeable base. Both include VAT.

| Resin patios | £50–£130 per m² |
| Permeable SuDS driveways | £80–£130 per m² |
| Resin bonded driveways | £35–£105 per m² |

Planning in Exeter
Patios, paths and steps in a rear garden are generally permitted development for houses. Listed buildings, flats and raised platforms are the main exceptions, and any part that is in front of the house follows the front-garden drainage rules.
General information for England, not legal advice.
Weather and working days
The South West gets more rain than the east of England, especially on higher ground, so permeability and falls matter on every drive. Surveys run all year; resin work itself waits for a dry day above about 5°C.
How it works
Get a guide price online, book a free survey, receive an itemised written quote, then agree a date. Most drives over a ready base are laid in a day.
